I've sold my PS3 since I haven't touched it for months. Last December, I bought a copy of Final Fantasy XIII-2 because I was a fan of the series. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it and it wasn't enough to convince me to keep the console. So, I sold it, along with all my games.
It was not really a good deal, but I had no choice. It has the latest firmware on it. I don't regret selling it though since I sold it to a good friend.
I also sold my Galaxy Tab. I wasn't using it that much as well since I grew tired of always carrying a big lump of plastic everywhere I go. Plus, I feel dumb holding it up to my ear whenever I took a call since I don't always have my headset with me when it rings.
Also, like the PS3, it wasn't a good deal. I sold it for some measly amount of cash and an old Android phone. I then sold the Android phone to my aunt at a really low price since she's family and I wanted her to learn how to use smartphones.
So, with the small amount of money I got from selling my toys, I've decided to buy a used Galaxy Note. I've always wanted one the moment it was launched but I didn't buy it then because it was too overpriced. It hasn't been a year yet and now they are selling it for only 70% of its original price. With the steep price difference from a brand new Galaxy S3, I thought (and still think) that the used Galaxy Note was the better purchase. Used Galaxy Notes now sell for 55-60% their original prices.
The one I got was only barely used for a few months. The original owner desperately wanted an iPhone so he really wanted to dispose his Galaxy Note. So far, there seems to be no issues with my new toy. I flashed it with the latest ICS official firmware and it really feels good as new. There were no bugs, no scratches, and no hidden defects. Hopefully none will appear, ever.
Thanks to fast-evolving technology, last month's treasure is this month's trash. Even though I sold my good stuff real cheap, there will always be other people making the same mistakes as I am. You just need patience to wait for the right oppurtunity and the wisdom to see through possible scams.
I'm happy with my new gadget. I hope this happiness lasts for a year. More even.
